Ingredients
How to use
Apply powder or highlighter directly to the sponge, then lightly pat it onto your cheeks and forehead using the bottom of the sponge, and onto the corners of your eyes and nose using the narrow tip. It's also ideal for blending liquid foundation or concealer applied directly to the skin. [Care Instructions] [Easy Care] Wrap the sponge in the &be Sponge Cleaning Sheet and massage it in to remove any dirt. Then, dry it in a well-ventilated, shady area. [Proper Care] Wash with mild detergent and lukewarm water, then drain. Wrap it in a dry towel to thoroughly drain the water, then dry it in a well-ventilated, shady area.

We're working on rolling out prepaid duties for more countries soon.
It was just fine! It's soft and fits my skin well. I didn't really notice any hyaluronic acid effects. I think this is a little better than the 100 yen store stuff. So I thought it would be better to just go with the disposable 100 yen store stuff.
It expands and becomes very bouncy when it absorbs water. I feel like it makes foundation stick exceptionally well. I'd love to buy it again!
I'm glad I bought the black one before, it's easy to hold and use.
I bought this to use with my &be concealer. It has just the right amount of chewy texture, blends well with the concealer, and minimizes irritation around the eyes, so I keep buying it. The teardrop shape makes it easy to apply to the small areas around the inner corner of the eye or to a larger area, depending on how you apply it. It can also be washed with foundation detergent, making it hygienic to use.
